What Sets ktCOLOR's Blues Apart from All the Others

The ktCOLOR blue shades of color are made from natural and rare mineral pigments in our artisan paint workshop in Switzerland. They have a distinctive color depth, reminiscent of the beautiful blue hues found in the sky, in lakes and the ocean. Choose ktCOLOR blue paint colors for sustainability and for aesthetically pleasing surfaces in your projects. You will be delighted to see how they reflect the beauty of nature in your spaces.

As blue as the clouds in the sky when the day fades into the evening.

Lightening the pigment cobalt blue results in gray-blue pastel shades that serve a different design purpose than those made with ultramarine blue. While the similarly light color KT 32.022 Medium ultramarine blue appears to dissolve edges and create weightless, retreating forms, Misty blue appears to strengthen the form and make it more substantial. Light shades of ultramarine blue look immaterialized, Misty blue looks present and tangible. This difference is linked to the pigments: the ultramarine chemistry is like that of the ozone in the sky, but cobalt blue is metallic.
